(MOST RECENT UPDATE: September, 2003)
After discussing the issue
with the planning committee, it was recently decided
to cancell the upcoming Shock
Treatment convention. The announcement of this
event did not generate enough
interest to support it. However, The Shock
Treatment Network does support
any other committee that wishes to plan such an
event in the future.
We would like to thank the few that did express interest
in attending. Shock
Treatment is truly a great movie, IMO, and there are a lot
of people who agree with
me. However, it is true that it will always be in the
shadow of its predecessor
Rocky Horror. Perhaps one day it will stand alone?
One can dream! :)
Sincerely, Donny.
P.S. -- A lot of people have shown their support to me, and for that I am deeply and eternally grateful. Several have expressed interest that I should REPLAN the convention for it's 25th anniversary in 2006, so I WILL be planning it again. Look for it in the fall of 2006 in one of 3 locations yet determined: NYC, Los Angeles, or Las Vegas.

(Well, Dorothy, you were safe. They didn't make it to Kansas in the end. But who knows what's in store for the future...)
